We had a zillion emails on this, and I do not want people to be confused on what they are voting on. The minor "its" is not an issue, but if we need to insert a whole other phrase, I will need to start a competing ballot and vote this one down and vote the other one up. Email voting is a PITA. Mr. Phillips, please advise if that is what you would like me to do. On Fri, Apr 19, 2019 at 9:57 AM John Phillips via Lnc-business < lnc-business@hq.lp.org> wrote:
As Whitney pointed out that grammatical error needs of its vs it's needs to be fixed. to be reinserted as it got lost in our many edits, I think unintentionally. I would say in the current iteration it fits best at the end of the 5th clause.

What language is that? I had five separate threads on this. On Fri, Apr 19, 2019 at 2:49 PM John Phillips <john.phillips@lp.org> wrote:
I don't care enough for that.
That zillion email thing is why I occassionally sent the changes in entirety for confirmation as it got crazy and stuff like this got lost if we did not.
But I don't care enough about that language to do that, my other objections have been addressed in this latest version.
However, JBH's objection is a little stronger as I believe the verbage he suggested was in the version approved by the co-sponsors.

I vote no. I had objected to the language in the first resolved clause because it has us *opposing* state legislative proposals to ban conversion therapy, by suggesting that existing laws against fraud and abuse are adequate to address this problem. They are not adequate - kids trapped in these programs are not able to hire a lawyer and institute a civil action for fraud - which is why half the states have moved to revise their statutes. People who *support* conversion therapy are the ones saying that new laws are not needed. I would support us saying nothing, and I would support us supporting bans on conversion therapy, but I cannot support us opposing bans on conversion therapy as unnecessary legislation, which is what this resolved clause states. I did work with the sponsors on replacement language, which they all (including Ms. Harlos) accepted. I don't know whether the sponsors directed Ms. Harlos to revert it, or whether it happened out of confusion, but I cannot support it as it now stands.

WHEREAS, conversion therapy has been used in the past as a form of punishment for homosexuality and gender identity which does not conform to traditional expectations; and the rights to gender and sexual identity are fundamental rights;
WHEREAS, this conversion therapy has it's roots in unethical treatment used since the 70's in issues such as drug use, psychiatric disorders, and learning disabilities, that describe humiliation, sleep deprivation, sexual abuse, starvation, and isolation as "treatment techniques";
WHEREAS, children are often subjected to this type of therapy against their will, even by loving and well-intentioned parents who are unaware that the methods used in conversion therapy are extremely forceful and abusive, and that any therapy similar to this has been shown to result in suicide attempts by 20% of these patients: a five-fold increase in the risk of suicide attempts compared to other teens;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that therapy modeled off these abusive institutions, protected and/or funded by the State, constitutes consumer fraud and forceful abuse, which the Libertarian Party opposes, and we oppose all laws allowing such.

I vote no.
I had objected to the language in the first resolved clause because it has us *opposing* state legislative proposals to ban conversion therapy, by suggesting that existing laws against fraud and abuse are adequate to address this problem. They are not adequate - kids trapped in these programs are not able to hire a lawyer and institute a civil action for fraud - which is why half the states have moved to revise their statutes. People who *support* conversion therapy are the ones saying that new laws are not needed. I would support us saying nothing, and I would support us supporting bans on conversion therapy, but I cannot support us opposing bans on conversion therapy as unnecessary legislation, which is what this resolved clause states.
I did work with the sponsors on replacement language, which they all (including Ms. Harlos) accepted. I don't know whether the sponsors directed Ms. Harlos to revert it, or whether it happened out of confusion, but I cannot support it as it now stands.

WHEREAS, conversion therapy has been used in the past as a form of punishment for homosexuality and gender identity which does not conform to traditional expectations; and the rights to gender and sexual identity are fundamental rights;
WHEREAS, this conversion therapy has it's roots in unethical treatment used since the 70's in issues such as drug use, psychiatric disorders, and learning disabilities, that describe humiliation, sleep deprivation, sexual abuse, starvation, and isolation as "treatment techniques";
WHEREAS, children are often subjected to this type of therapy against their will, even by loving and well-intentioned parents who are unaware that the methods used in conversion therapy are extremely forceful and abusive, and that any therapy similar to this has been shown to result in suicide attempts by 20% of these patients: a five-fold increase in the risk of suicide attempts compared to other teens;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that therapy modeled off these abusive institutions, protected and/or funded by the State, constitutes consumer fraud and forceful abuse, which the Libertarian Party opposes, and we oppose all laws allowing such.
FURTHER, BE IT RESOLVED, the Libertarian Party opposes subjecting unwilling participants through force or coercion, especially children, to any therapy that violates the non-aggression principle through any method that would be considered abuse or torture.

Seems to me to it specifically does not say anything against laws banning it, but does say that we do specifically oppose laws that allow it, protect it, or fund it.
Just to be clear.
I do understand your point tho JBH. Resubmit it with your wording, I believe Alex and I for sure said we would sponsor multiple versions, I believe Richard has expressed that willingness as well. So no real issue voting on both and using the winner.

=============================================
Resolution:
WHEREAS, the Libertarian Party asserts that all individuals have the right to exercise sole dominion over their own lives, and have the right to live in whatever manner they choose, so long as they do not forcibly interfere with the equal right of others to live in whatever manner they choose;
WHEREAS, although children have not reached sufficient maturity to be the full custodian of their rights which are temporarily entrusted to their parents or guardians, their rights to bodily integrity and intimate personal identification, are inalienable and coerced action that would fundamentally deny these rights is abusive;
WHEREAS, parents, or other guardians, have the right to raise their children according to their own standards and beliefs, provided that the rights of children to be free from abuse and neglect are also protected;
WHEREAS, conversion therapy has been used in the past as a form of punishment for homosexuality and gender identity which does not conform to traditional expectations; and the rights to gender and sexual identity are fundamental rights;
WHEREAS, this conversion therapy has it's roots in unethical treatment used since the 70's in issues such as drug use, psychiatric disorders, and learning disabilities, that describe humiliation, sleep deprivation, sexual abuse, starvation, and isolation as "treatment techniques";
WHEREAS, children are often subjected to this type of therapy against their will, even by loving and well-intentioned parents who are unaware that the methods used in conversion therapy are extremely forceful and abusive, and that any therapy similar to this has been shown to result in suicide attempts by 20% of these patients: a five-fold increase in the risk of suicide attempts compared to other teens;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that therapy modeled off these abusive institutions, protected and/or funded by the State, constitutes consumer fraud and forceful abuse, which the Libertarian Party opposes, and we oppose all laws allowing such.
FURTHER, BE IT RESOLVED, the Libertarian Party opposes subjecting unwilling participants through force or coercion, especially children, to any therapy that violates the non-aggression principle through any method that would be considered abuse or torture.
